From the article

The 2023 sixth-round pick is a classic pocket passer that lacks the mobility of modern NFL quarterbacks. He also struggles under pressure, as displayed last week versus the Panthers. He has slow feet and a long release, meaning sacks and turnovers are on the table for Dallas this week.

McKee's immobility and accuracy issues make him exploitable; Cowboys should attack outside.

Tanner McKee, the 2023 sixth-round pick filling in for injured Jalen Hurts, is a classic pocket passer lacking modern NFL mobility and struggling under pressure. He has slow feet, a long release, and poor accuracy in tight windows (3-of-15 last week vs. Panthers) and on throws beyond ten yards outside the numbers (8-of-9 inaccurate). Dallas should exploit these weaknesses, particularly with DeVonta Smith and Dontayvion Wicks out, forcing McKee to rely on backup receivers.
